eva, talk to us a little bit about the significance of this event today with cheney ripon, wisconsin, a beautiful part of the state here and it is known as the birthplace of the republican party. >> and it is here that the vice president will directly appeal to independent voters to republican voters as well. the message is quite clear that a harris administration would be principally concerned with the rule of law, upholding the constitution democracy, and it is those fundamentals that are most important, even if these republican and independent voters disagree with her on a host of other policy matters, she'll be bolstered in part by former congresswoman liz cheney. they will be standing before signs that say country over party. so she is a key ambassador for the harris walls campaign in making this argument. the campaign also investing in this argument as well. they're up with a new ad featuring a voter that supported the former president in 2016 and in 2020. let's listen. >> look i voted for donald trump in 2016 and 2020. i thought he was going to help hard working people, but it

political experts alex thompson this was an event that follows her event yesterday with liz cheney in ripon, wisconsin that was designed to reach out, i think towards disaffected republicans. this was a bit more of her wheelhouse. there's labor support in the building. how are things looking for her in michigan? well, today was all about shoring up some problems that she has with her base right now fact is that the teamsters have not endorsed the firefighters this week to not endorse those were two endorsement. those are two unions that endorsed joe biden four years ago and so it was not a coincidence she talked a lot about labor, the charter, a lot about working class americans and then for this, she met privately with arab americans and muslim groups to try to shore up as those groups are very concerned about the escalating war in the middle east yeah. to that point, i mean, she had this important meeting today with arab and muslim leaders they are very angry, understandably about the war, not just in gaza, but now the expanding war in lebanon break down for us the harris campaign's relat

the city of ripon itself was chosen, naturally, not by chance, it is famous for being the birthplacerepublican party in 1854. haris came to the city and made a direct appeal to republican and independent voters. dekchaini himself, the father of the new supporter of haris, also announced that he plans to support hamola in the elections. in general, the entire haris campaign focuses on the threats to freedom and democracy, which , naturally, donald trump represents. trump's campaign, on the contrary, portrays haris as a frivolous fool, responsible for the war in ukraine and the attack on israel. trump, look, she posts kamala's fiery dances and says that the us does not need another tiktok star, it needs a strong leader, of course, like donald trump himself. harris was also accused of... bullshitting, that is, imitating vigorous activity, because of the photos she took on board the plane during an alleged inspection of... although biden did not even go to the affected areas. look. she took the trouble to arrange a photo shoot, which she posted on social media, where she tries to deceive

holmes, who is at the site of trump's rally in saginaw, michigan and cnn's eva mckend, who was in ripon, wisconsin, were vice president and kamala harris is campaigning. so kristen to kick it up to you first, what did the former president focused on his rally today bit more of a difficult question than you might think because it's focus was all over the place they had billed this because a speech on the economy ensure he touched on some of those policies, particularly no tax on tips. >> no tax on social security or overtime. but the speech really veered and multiple we'll different directions. we heard him using some of his favorite catchphrases, calling nancy pelosi crazy, you talking about how gavin newsom was crazy saying kamala harris ruin california and also talking about how kamala harris never worked at mcdonald's, something that he has existed on fixating on, but the other other thing that he really kept going back to was this conversation around the federal response to hurricane helene. and the reason why that's notable is because donald trump his team has been really trying to

laura: tonight, cheney plans to join harris on the campaign trail, in a historic location, ripon, wisconsintle white schoolhouse is where the republican party was formed, in 1854. tonight, it's a stage, for harris to make her case to swing voters and republicans like cheney, who no longer feel at home in their own party. for the pbs “news hour,” i'm laura barron lopez. amna: let's delve further into our pbs news, npr, marist poll that was released today. the topline? with just over a month to go until election day, the presidential race is still neck and neck. our political correspondent lisa desjardins is here to break down more of the findings. good to see you. just a month out, how is the race listing? lisa: i know all of us are hesitant about polls, but they are important to look at. when you look at the race overall it is essentially a dead heat. what is important is the trendlines. let's look at the trend. you look at harris's support in blue over trump's support in red, you can see how close they have been. she has been ahead. both of them have gained a little bit. that is because a

we spoke to one woman from ripon. this of course is the birthplace of the republican party. she's an independent voter and she seems receptive to this message. let's listen i voted for president reagan then but the last few years has been democrat because i don't go for party, i go for who represents me i'm not going to agree with what everything they say but i wanted to represent what i feel the best republican and independent voters will not only here in wisconsin, but the campaign is deploying republicans surrogates in all the battleground states across the next four days. and i think it's important because ban the former president donald trump does in fact have former democrats out making the case for him. they don't have a similar organized effort. there is no democrat for trump equivalent here. and he just speaks to how the harris campaign zain is prioritizing this and believes this is a winning strategy, but not every democrat is onboard. i've spoken to democratic lawmakers who think that campaign instead should be investing in core coalitions black voters, latino vot

alex is extraordinary in just a few weeks ago in ripon, the birthplace other republican party, great crowd, good conversation with congresswoman cheney and so i feel good about where we're at, but i think people because expectations for the blue wall states, if they thought it was going to be a ten point lead there, they're wrong. we are a purple state, donald trump has support here. i believe very strongly that we're going to win here in wisconsin. >> there. look, we're now looking three days, three weeks out to this so this election, and you're laying out so eloquently why it is so tight do you think that there's a good chance we may not know who the president is that on election night, because it may just be too tight and a variety of places. i'm curious in wisconsin let's an as the governor what you're doing to make sure that that that process can play out freely and fairly as it needs to. and also, if you can if there's a plan in place to combat any disinformation that starts to be spreader conspiracy theories as we wait to get those results well, certainly our me and the folks

has must never again stand behind the seal of the president of the united states case together, in ripon, wisconsin. >> that was the very birthplace, by the way, of the republican party. they're hoping it's going to send a big message to conservatives, to independents who maybe wary of trump, a green light to ditch him and go with harris. >> you know what that green light? >> it seems to be growing a little bit brighter. liz cheney is not alone in republican support for harris. the other company she's with her own father former vice president dick cheney former attorney general, alberto gonzales former congressman adam kinzinger, former georgia lieutenant governor jeff duncan, former senator jeff flake, and just within the last day, former trump aide cassidy hutchinson, who spent time inside trump's white house now the republicans for harris movement will get even bigger next week. hitch hutchinson will join liz cheney with two other former trump officials, alyssa farah griffin. sarah matthews to make their case against trump in pennsylvania. and look, many of these republicans will tell

also leaning on their sense of patriotism in this hour eva mckend, cnn, ripon, wisconsin, you all don't trump heads to georgia today where he'll meet with state governor brian kemp and get a briefing on hurricane damage, the visit comes after trump campaigned in michigan on thursday, slammed the white house response to hurricane helene, falsely accusing biden and harris of stealing money from fema for undocumented immigrants kamala's spent all her fema money billions of dollars on housing for illegal migrants, many of whom should not be in our country including 1 billion for gift cards for illegal aliens and putting them up in luxury hotels with a gift card with a gift card to welcome them to america as our veterans are sleeping on the sidewalks below those hotels where the former president, also abashed liz cheney while speaking to fox news earlier in the day, he mocked her congressional loss and said that she was terrible. >> trump has been given more time to respond, meanwhile, to special counsel jack smith's sweeping new immunity brief. in his federal election section subversion cas

it's like chad was explaining the wind just got under there and then once it's once one piece starts ripon and those 100 mile an hour winds are tearing at it no match for hurricane milton stadium roof like that one law it's unbelievable. >> and of course, then tells you the next time and obviously we continue to see hurricanes in this world that the new plans for this being a safe location are no more. i mean, thousands of cots that were supposed to be set up to be providing shelter and comfort. a city so now planned for the possibility that that no longer can be a contingency plan >> and of course, you there are shades of the superdome in katrina, which was a much more disastrous outcome that so many man-made failings in that storm. it. but a lot of lessons learned and a lot of disaster response textbooks were written around that storm and how you plan going forward and stadiums are great places. they can be fantastic tools in a storm like this. but there's one more sort of example that this is not our father's storm anymore on this overheating planet supercharge storms. we have to rethin

so setting it in ripon where the republican party was founded and doing something, it's less about, i think actually the liz cheney thing, but correct. trying to create a media moment that contrast with trump, i think to alex's point, but i also think it gives republicans a permission structure to vote for a democrat and it gives independent women ability to say like, oh, well maybe she's not as liberal as they're painting her out to be. and this is, this is an okay vote and it makes it okay to vote for kamala harris in a world where maybe they wouldn't have otherwise. so i do think that it's helpful to have her there. >> there's nobody that votes against her. kamala harris, because liz cheney is supporting are correct. but there might be people well who could support her on account of liz cheney's support. now, look, it's probably one lady in wisconsin. it's not one lady might probably cite this entire election. however, you know, to your point, it does not going to be a major swing one way or another well they're all equal, right. >> if nikki haley came out and supported kamala harr

and now she will join the vice president for their first event together since that endorsement in ripon, wisconsin, as you just mentioned, the birthplace of the american or the republican party. now according to campaign officials, the message here is going to be about putting country over party that the vice president is committed to upholding the rule of law even if there is disagreement on policy issues. and in some respects, that is a nod to liz cheney's endorsement that she was supporting the vice president despite not agreeing completely on policy. now, she is the latest and what has been a series of republican endorsements for the vice president. of course, remember during the democrats national convention, they dedicated part of the program to this exact issue this of course happening in wisconsin as you also mentioned, a swing state, a really crucial state for the vice president. if you look at the polls she has 49% compared to former president donald trump's 46%. so, so very close in this state and it's going to mark a series of events to come for the vice president and appeal

that same notion also makes news just a short time ago in ripon, wisconsin, home of the republican party, one of the grant this names the grand old party campaign for the democratic candidate for president. former wyoming republican congresswoman liz cheney, who like her father dick cheney is both a staunch conservative and now a harris supporter i cast my first vote ever in 1984 for ronald reagan i served in the state department in both bush administrations and i served in the united states house of representatives for three terms, including as the third highest ranking republican in house leadership so republican even before donald trump started spray tanning 20 years ago when we were campaigning in wisconsin and all across the country, we were campaigning as compassion senate conservatives what january 6 shows us is that there is not an ounce, not an ounce of compassion. >> and donald trump he is petty. he has vindictive, and he is cruel. >> and donald trump is not fit to lead this good and great nation every endorsement matters and this endorsement matters a great deal is and carries

part of a big strategy by the harris campaign also talk to aides who told me what we saw yesterday in ripon, wisconsin. we're going to see more of that. the vice president going to these red rural counties maybe because she can't win them, but she can lose them by less. and when you have a race that is want to be this close that might just be enough today, though. she will be in michigan, she will be in flint where she's going to have a rally. so certainly there is a play here to continue to focus on the democratic areas, mobilize those voters, but also try to get some of those undecideds away from former president donald trump yeah, there's also this issue of latino voters crucial to this gaming, just as independence that everyone else is because it's going to be so close. >> what does the harris campaign doing right now to try to bring in latino voters? >> well, there's certainly launching an aggressive push to shore up those voters. if you look at the polls, the vice president is ahead of former president donald trump among this growing electorate. but she's still lags behind other democ

but it's coming and then all of a sudden you see the fire and the jets go on the bottom are safire's riponbag and then it came in those beautiful arms came in, they hug it like you were hugging a little beautiful baby astrophysicist neil degrasse, tyson author of the new book, merlin store the universe of traveler's guide to blue moons, black holes, martin the stars and everything far. >> sir, i am so grateful to have you on the periphery to thank you for being here. >> honestly, it's a welcome i would say it's a respite from the campaign trail, but i guess it's not actually your spaces everywhere for you. but yes, they're they're connected points. >> yeah. so this is this is this one what's your first book and you've updated? >> yeah. yeah. my very first white wrote in graduate school. actually, and it was turned out to be the proving ground of all the different ways, even to this day that i communicate science to the public. quirky, fun merlin is a fictional character that i created to be this this, this tutor reverse and berlin has been around. it's not, it's not the, our theory and mer

yesterday, harris appeared alongside prominent republican liz cheney in ripon, wisconsin the birthplace of the republican party i was a trump started spray tanning. i have never voted for a democrat but this year, i am proudly casting my vote for vice president kamala harris the former wyoming lawmaker, of course, the daughter of former vice president, very conservative vice president dick cheney well liz cheney lost for congress she was terrible. >> liz cheney is a stupid warhawk. all she wants to do is shoot missiles at paypal. i really think it hurts. i think frankly, if kamala i think they hurt each other, i think they are so bad. both of them trump's campaign taking a more untraditional approach on the ground, trying to target irregular voters in areas that his campaign didn't focus on four years ago there are seven battleground states. i actually think we have a chance at winning all seven, but only if we must are asked for the next 32 days all right, joining us now is bloomberg political editor, laura davidson. >> laura, good morning. wonderful to have you back. >> let's let's ta

>> we are so excited in wisconsin because the vice president and liz cheney is going to ripon, wisconsiny party calling for change and more justis. at this point the republican party is drifted from the best spirit and liz chen hello, has been telling people they need to defeat trump to put the country over party and today shoal campaign i think for the first time with vice president harris in wisconsin, the state that tipped both last two presidential elections. it's exactly those undecided voters that amy walters talked about who are conflicted, and this is a moment when they can choose patriotism and love of country and make a choice for harris knowing that the water is safe, there are or republicans doing the same thing democrats independent and this is the time to make a statement about our constitution. >> still ahead, a republican appointed judge in fulton county strikes down georgia's six week abortion ban. we will take a look at that new ruling and its political implications. that's straight ahead on morning joe weekend.
